No doubt this seems slow and impossible to us; but it is the only policy—if we may use the word policy in this connexion—which will meet the case. All mere schemes of reform perish through the innate sinfulness of the hu-yean heart. That was why Jesus had no specific scheme. He thought that if you can change a man's heart, you will change the whole change is made in the heart of man, one social scheme is as good or bad as another. There is as much covetousness in Soviet Russia og in the.old Tzarist Russia, only it is more widely spread. As the late Dr. Parker profoundly said, "The Christian method is the most fundamental; it cornea everything before it: it "is only abstract, that it may become concrete.""
Finally, let us remember. however, that the world cannot have this fundamental Christian method without Christ himself. You cannot have the power without the engine; and you cannot have love instead of covetousness and selfishness without having this Christ enthroned in the heart to give the power to love. As someone has said; "Unless Christ is put on the throne nothing can save the world from recurring crises like this."
